Backyard Blast 5

A neighborhood-based Vacation Bible School experience bringing the gospel directly into our communities.

June 1-4, 2026

What is Backyard Blast?

Backyard Blast is an off-campus alternative to the traditional VBS Eastmont has hosted in the past. While renovations are underway on our church campus, we’re taking the same mission into our neighborhoods.
Backyard Blast will be hosted in the yards and neighborhoods of Eastmont families and will include the same elements families love about VBS:
• Bible study
• Crafts
• Recreation
• Snacks
 
Our goal is the same as always: to share the gospel and build meaningful relationships with children and families in our community.

Why Backyard Blast?

Because the church isn’t just a building — it’s the people of God.

This summer, instead of asking families to come to church, we’re bringing church to them. Backyard Blast takes the message of Jesus into backyards, driveways, and neighborhoods across our community.

Backyard Blast is a chance to:

  • Meet people where they are
  • Build real connections with neighbors and church families
  • Make Jesus known in simple, powerful ways

 

Seven locations. One and a half hours each night. Four days. A huge opportunity for gospel impact.

How the Week Works:

How the Week Works:
 
Night 1–3: Backyard Blast takes place in neighborhood locations throughout the community.

This final night will include food, inflatables, games, and a time to celebrate all God has done throughout the week.
